Pritch's Journal

[pastorpritch]

Well, I guess since I'm over 35 (currently 37) I better get in the right section. My old journal is in my sig.

Here's what I did today:


5 Rounds of:
1. Leg Press
2. BB Front Squats
3. Standing 1L HS Curl
4. Seated HS 1L Ext
5. Goblet Squat
6. Smith Lunge, changed to SUMO Deads
7. Seated HS Calf Raise

I added weight each time, did reps of 10, 10, 8-10, 8, 6

Entire workout took a half hour

From your previous journal, I see that you're strong. What's your height and weight?

[pastorpritch]

Thanks payton. Strength has lessened but I'm chasing "the look" now rather than numbers. I'm 5'10" 215 give or take water weight

Looks like you like circuit training ;-)

Do you have any defined goals?

[pastorpritch]

I actually don't do circuit training usually, but as there hasn't been many people in the gym lately I'm finding it convenient and a good change of pace from 'the usual'

[pastorpritch]

Sorry it has been so long. I had another tooth pulled (got my wisdom teeth out a couple months ago) and this one is right on the sinus line - in fact the dentist could see it after he pulled the tooth out. So I haven't been doing much lifting because of the pressure - it can knock the plug out :-O
I did start walking yesterday though and had a good stretch afterwards. I'm going to start doing 2 miles a day and stretching afterwards. I need to get rid of my tire around my gut and back!

[pastorpritch]

Just did another 2 mile walk with stretching afterwards. I am already more flexible than I was yesterday

[BodyBldgPwrLftr]

Your volume is mind-boggling, especially for the relatively small amount of time it takes you to get it done. Good stuff!

[pastorpritch]

Thanks
Wait until I turn it up

[pastorpritch]

Alright, so working at the gym as actually prevented me from working out. I've only been getting in about one or two workouts a week. Now that I have been able to right some finances, I got a membership at my old gym. So time to get back to it!

[pastorpritch]

Finally got back in the gym

So Thursday night my sister in law died very suddenly - accidental overdose. Folks, if you are having a hard time dealing with stuff, get off the meds! Then talk to someone, anyone. Be a great person, but don't hold that stuff in.

So I've been in Va for the week until Sunday with my family and won't be working out much. See "ya'll" next week

[pastorpritch]

Was a good, but hard week with family.

Last night I started to look into the AthleanX Beast program. It's dirt cheap for lifetime access. I e-mailed them to see if there were any hidden fees for "upgrades" and such, kinda like "in app purchases." They said no.

Think I might get this by the end of the month (save up for it) and get going on it.
